A few weeks ago I decided to start with Microsoft Windows 8, the world is changing and I thought I better change along. With Microsoft Windows 8 comes Hyper-V, Microsoft answer to VMware ESX/vSphere.
Sharing folders
With Microsoft Windows 7 ?I ran VMware Workstation and I used to share several folders on my laptop to share ISO or common installation files with the virtual machines. It's handy when you play around with new stuff and have to install virtual machine regulary. You don't have to download the same stuff over and over, it's easier to have DotNet stuff and stuff like that easy accesible for your virtual machine.
Hyper-V
I was kinda shocked to find out that Microsoft Hyper-V for Windows 8 lacked this kind of option, to share folders to a guest virtual machine. To people using Microsoft Hyper-V on Windows 8 for a longer time it might not have been a suprise but to me, using VMware products since like ever it was a suprise. Of course the Windows 8 version of Hyper-V is nothing compared to the server version, but then again VMware also has a client version and a server version of it hypervisor. So here I'm talking about the client version, with VMware it's Workstation and with Hyper-V, it's Hyper-V for Windows 8.
